Just picked up Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions on the DS. A rather surprising departure from Web of Shadows, but awesome nonetheless.

Just got Enslaved. Haven't played anything else on my Xbox since it arrived.

Trying to get achievements on Bionic Commado: ReArmed, Shadow Complex, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey: 7/10 Definitely not as good as the first, mostly because it lacks a sense of cohesion or logical progression. But still a great comedy.

Spider-Man 3: 9/10. Aside from a few cheesy lines, this one was fantastic, focusing not on the conflict between Spider-Man and the villains, but the conflict within his own mind. An excellent conclusion to the series.

Just got Ranger: Guardian Signs, and it's pretty cool. I wish I'd played Shadows of Almia first, though, as it's hard to get used to all the differences from the first Ranger game. I keep thinking I need to draw a loop around the Pokemon before I can run, for example. Also just tried out...

Matrix Revolutions: 7/10 While it's disappointing that the majority of the movie takes place outside of the Matrix, it's still got some great action and writing, aside from the ending, of course.

I am two achievements away from 100% completion on both Prince of Persia and Rez HD. It's a shame I spend so little time at home, and thus don't spend much on the Xbox. Handheld gaming has always been much more attractive to me...

Aliens - 8/10 James Cameron did a good job of balancing Ridley Scott's taste for atmosphere with a more enjoyable action-movie vibe, but he also took a few liberties with the universe. A single drop of alien blood burns through, like, four decks of the Nostromo, but in this movie aliens get...

Alien: 7/10 While not the best movie ever, I appreciate Ridley Scott's taste for atmosphere and realism when it comes to sci-fi. I can see how this inspired the first Metroid game in ways.

On my way to the final two achievements of Prince of Persia (2008), just beat The Fallen King, and getting drawn into Across Age.

Started up Beyond Good and Evil on PS2, slogging through Prince of Persia: The Fallen King on DS, and partway into Phoenix Spirit for iPhone. Awesome, meh, awesome, respectively (at least so far).

Operation Condor. While I wish the female characters had been a little less damsel in distress-y, this is Jackie Chan at his best. 9/10.

The Expendables. A little bloody, and someone needs to tell the cameraman what the "W" button on top does, but Statham and Li brought the thunder as much as ever. Still, I got a headache and some motion sickness from the amateurish camera work. 7/10.

The Matrix Reloaded: 7/10 Despite being the start of the decline of the series, and ending on a BS cliffhanger, this movie had an interesting plot and some of the best fight scenes in cinema history.

I just picked up The Prince of Persia: The Fallen King. Nothing special so far, but it is starting to draw me in story-wise.

Salt-4/5 The only major problem I had was I didn't understand the main character's motivation, and the movie felt a tad short to me. Other than that, it's great to see an action title like this, not to mention one with a woman in the starring role.

The Legendary Starfy. Considering the stuff I normally play, this is a pleasant change of pace.

I... guess the last one I saw is Inception, which was a 10/10 easily... although that would mean I haven't watched a movie in several weeks. That's unusual. I guess what little free time I have nowadays is spent gaming.

Trying to get through the final dungeon of Final Fantasy IV, so I can decide whether or not to sell it off.
